So far the Walmart General STX seems just fine. The difference I notice in the tread pattern between the HTS, is that the jagged sipes were moved inboard (outside tread blocks have straight sipes), and the center rib/tread is a bit more aggressive, with sharp angles of tread within it.
From an aesthetic standpoint, the STX looks [censored] good. Nothing about it suggests that it's inferior to the HTS in any way.
We got a couple inches of snow in the area the day the tires were installed, and the grip between the worn Michelin XC LT4's (a Sears exclusive, purchased by the PO) are night and day. Deliberately drove through a bunch of slushy puddles when able, and vehicle tracked straight ahead. Obviously too early to judge performance in any meaningful way, but the wife is about 800 miles into her journey to Kentucky on these tires, so break-in is over; I'm certainly eager to see how these Walmart "specials" perform over the long-term as this will be my first experience with store exclusive tires, running them from new.
